Actually there everything that isn't a new 3DS is discontinued in Japan, they never got the 2DS either.
Ah I see.

So Iwata talks about several things he shared with TIME including amiibos, the mobile market, Wii U 3DS, and the rumors of the Netflix Live Action Zelda series being false.

I was about to say it's probably a joke but then you said no joke.

Bumping this half a year old thread for this.

Not sure if it's legit, but if so, RIP in pepperoni Wii U. Four years of absolute dogshit. :3

Okay, you were alright. You just didn't actually try.

Well the NX should be announced in E3, but the released in fall I'll take with a grain of salt.

I don't know, Fall is a pretty common release window since devs like to put out new, amazing, fun stuff JUST AS SCHOOL STARTS

Yeah like I said it's plausible but I'll take it with a grain of salt.

Same. I'm giving it a benefit of a doubt because the Xbone and PS4 had a similarly lengthy "rumor cycle" and they were also announced a few months before their release. (About six and ten months respectively...?)

I don't know, the whole "announce at E3, release in Fall" rumors have been flying around for a while, and just seem to be based on nothing but, "because of course they will".  It's a given that they'll be talking about NX sometime this year, so why not throw E3 and Fall out there?  They've the obvious "big" go-to times.

Oh yeah, because it's Nintendo, and they love to throw curve balls just because they can.  So....yeah, salt.

The point has also been made that if there are any third parties out there with NX dev kits, Nintendo is doing a remarkably good job of convincing them to keep their mouths shut.  But again, it's Nintendo, ninja stealth development is kind of their thing.
